Western music popular among women in their 40s. World classics and hit songs (61–70)
Material GirlMadonna
In Western music of the 1980s, Madonna’s success was phenomenal, with an impressive number of hit songs, and she continues to perform energetically and remain at the top even today.
Among her many hits, when it comes to songs that really hype up the 1980s, isn’t it “Material Girl”?
All I Want for Christmas Is YouMariah Carey
When it comes to Mariah Carey songs that are best known among Japanese people and adored by women in their 40s, I think it has to be “All I Want for Christmas Is You.” It was used in the TV drama “29-sai no Christmas,” which I believe boosted its recognition in Japan.
The music video plays often during the Christmas season, and every time I see it, I think, “Mariah Carey was still slim back then.”
BelieveCher
This song was released in 1998 by American pop singer Cher.
A veteran performer active since the 1960s, she was already 52 at the time of its release.
This globally popular track is a dance tune crafted with programming and effects, and I think its upbeat groove makes it an easy song to get excited about.
Keep Holding onAvril Lavigne
This song says to always be strong and keep fighting.
Even when you’re completely exhausted, it makes you feel like you can get back up again.
Even if you think you’re alone, there’s always someone somewhere cheering you on, so it helps you realize there’s no need to fall into loneliness.
Girls Just Want To Have FunCyndi Lauper
This song titled “Girls Just Want to Have Fun” had such a cute, breezy vocal—wasn’t it wonderful? Listen to it while remembering yourself in your late teens or twenties.
No matter how old we get, women always keep a playful side like this, don’t we? Let’s keep having fun forever!
